When it comes to district finances, no news is good news

We’re happy to report news about the district’s finances that is, frankly, not news. When district finances are audited, which they are every year, the best outcome is that the auditors find no compliance issues. That was the case again this year. An audit was conducted by CliftonLarsonAllen and its opinion was “clean.” This is the best that any organization can do in an audit. The auditors also help advise the board and district staff about important changes in accounting practices. The School Board approved the audit at its Oct. 22 meeting.

Visit the finance department’s website to view all the district’s finance documents. E. Carver Co. Schools was one of many in the districts in the state of MN to be awarded a Certificate of Excellence (COE) for our Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR). For the second year in a row, the Finance Dept. received the Meritorious Budget Award from the Association of School Business Officials International (ASBO). The district is one of three in the state of Minnesota to receive this honor.
